Bibliography

This assignment is due on October 24. It must be submitted through SafeAssign as well as in paper.

You must produce an annotated bibliography containing five entries. Choose resources that will help you write your next assignment: the academic essay assignment.

In preparation for your academic essay, you must find five resources that you could potentially use for your academic essay assignment.

• Two resources must be peer-reviewed, academic resources, one of which you will probably use and respond to in your essay. This is usually an essay from an academic journal, though it could be a chapter from an academic book or a whole academic book. Please use PDF versions of journal articles, where available, not web pages.
• One resource must be a book review published in a peer-reviewed, academic journal, where the topic of the book is related to your topic for the next assignment.
• Two more resources can be anything that is authoritative and appropriate for an academic essay, related to your topic. Examples of valid material to use are documents produced by government agencies, well-respected organizations, and well-respected news media resources. Avoid including reference resources, including Wikipedia. Popular media items (in print and/or digital) are examples of material to avoid for this assignment.

Each entry must have a short annotation, consisting of two parts:

• an identification of the type of resource. It must be one of the following three options:
• Type: peer-reviewed, academic study.
• Type: book review.
• Type: non-academic, authoritative resource.
• one sentence about the resource.
• For the peer-reviewed, academic studies, the sentence must be a one-sentence statement of the main argument of the study.
• For the book review, the sentence must be an identification of the topic of the book that is reviewed.
• For the other resources, the sentence must be an identification of the topic or the argument of the resource.

For this assignment, you may not include:

• “Enhancing Floral Resources for Pollinators in Productive Agricultural Grasslands” by Woodcock et al.
• Bee Quest

Penalty: 20 points if there is only one academic, peer-reviewed resource.
Penalty: 40 points if there is no academic, peer-reviewed resource.
Penalty: up to 20 points for missing, inaccurate, or poorly formatted bibliographic information.

There should be no need for quotations. There is no need to use any other resource than those you are including. Format your bibliography according to MLA, APA, or Chicago standards.

As always, use double-space lineation, one-inch margins, and the Times New Roman font, 12-point in size.
